Like bring back Rocky Balboa wasn’t ridicules enough, Sly is bringing back RAMBO, yes RAMBO I can’t believe how is he managing to convince people that it’s a good idea. Would Sly still be believable as strong, powerful, destroy anything Rambo, I mean COME ON the guy is 60 years old, please start getting roles that fit your age. I hoped he will be only issuing orders from behind a desk or something, because that’s the only way this movie will work, but nooo the plot says “Vietnam vet John Rambo is forced to emerge from his reclusive lifestyle and take justice into his own hands after his daughter gets kidnapped”.
I guess if you can’t make new good movies, you can bring back your old movies that people liked. I know a lot of people are fans of the Rambo trilogy, and believe me I like them too, but let’s not ruin a good thing don’t you agree.
Bruce Willis is starring yet again in the forth sequel for Die Hard, I guess Hollywood can’t make new exciting Action Movies anymore, so lets bring back a famous action trilogy that everybody loved such as Die Hard. Honestly I enjoyed all of them but that was back when I was 15 (and i still do), and I hope that this one will not disappoint me.
It’s extremely annoying to me that sometimes Hollywood will bring back a famous and exciting trilogy, which ended on a high note, after everyone almost forgot about it and then make one more sequel that really sucks and it solely purpose is to get more money from that trilogy’s fans. I hope that this is not the case here and the teaser does look exciting, and I hope Bruce Willis will look believable as the tough guy in his current age. I will wait for the reviews though before going and watching it, that’s for sure.
All of the nextGen consoles are out, each delivering their unique features. It’s really hard to decide between them, but everybody have their favorites. Specs wise you could say that the PS3 slightly beats the 360, and the Wii comes in deserving 3rd spot, but that deosn’t means the PS3 is the best to choose.
The Wii although it’s in my opinion the worst of the nextGen consoles, but you have to admit it does has a unique style of playing that release the inner child in you. The Wii controller are untraditional, its motion and point and click based. If you want to play boxing then you have to box, if you want to play golf then you have to stand and pretend your playing real golf and the same goes for all other sport and shooting games. I’m pretty sure the Wii will be fun for a bit, but if I want to play golf I go and play golf, when I want to play video games, I want to be relaxed on my couch, laid back pressing buttons on my controller, but I truly think it’s the ultimate group game, its will be a lot of fun to play with a lot of people.
PS3 has the highest specs of the nextGen consoles, and it comes with all the exiting games that it had before only with way better graphics and playing experience. They also enhanced their online gaming functionality (but still not better than the XBOX 360). After 7 years of PS2, PS3 is release, the play station fans can’t get enough of it, and riots broke out in front of mega stores in the US to get them before they sell out. The only draw back I can see in the PS3 is their controllers. I mean they tried to make it motion sensitive, but in my opinion they failed, because unlike the Wii the motion sensitivity feature took away the vibrating feature of the controller. Instead of vibrating controller the whole screen will shake, just imagine that for a second, you’re playing let say Rainbow Six or Medal of Honor and every time a Bomb explodes the whole screen shakes, you have any idea how annoying this is.
XBOX 360 which is my favorite out of the three, the XBOX 360 is very close in specs to the PS3, it’s true that the PS3 has like 7 processors and the XBOX 360 has three only, but the XBOX 360 processors are twice as fast the PS3 processors. The XBOX is still the king of online gaming with no contest. Add to that the MediaCenter feature, which enables you to plug your XBOX to the network and play movies, pictures and music of your shared folders. It supports all formats that windows media player supports. The controllers are just like the old one, they just are wireless, maybe smaller and the vibrating option still there. The hard drive now is removable and upgradeable.
As you see they all are fun and entertaining, and based on your need and style you will pick the one that suit you the most.
I watched Miami Vice yesterday, and I have to say it’s one of the worst movies I seen this year. It’s supposed to be an Action movie, but it carried no excitement what so ever. The movie sent into a 2 hour nap. It was boring and dull. I was also disappointed with Colin Farrell and Jamie Fox performances, I like these guys but in that movie they were dreadful. The Role just didn’t fit.
You might like this movie if you liked the old series I guess, but I never seen the original Miami Vice series so I can’t judge. What bugged me the most that it was directed by Michael Mann, one of my favorite directors, but that’s not the first time he disappoints me. Anyway if you’re looking for a fast base action movie that keeps you glued to the screen, this is not it. If you’re looking for a smart story with shocking twists, this is not it. If you’re looking for a dull story with a lot of gun shots exchange, then this is your movie.
Teves was forced to wear the Brazilian Jersey (Argentina‘s biggest rivalry) as a punishment for his behavior in the Sheffield United match, when he stormed out after being substituted. The punishment was decided by his teammates, they made him wear the shirt he truly hate the Brazilian jersey for one whole day of training. After the training these were Teves words "I just couldn't train in a Brazil shirt. I wouldn't do it. It was like asking an Englishman to wear a German kit”
I just bought this device as gift to one of my friends, TVIX media jukebox is every downloader dream. The TVIX allow you to play any format video file or music file (avi, dvix, xvid, mpeg1-2, mp3 and more) on your regular TV screen. Just download the movies/shows you want transfer it to the device and play and enjoy, you can create folder and subfolder to organize your videos. You can also rip a whole DVD and store it and it will play it just like a DVD player.
The device also have an Ethernet and USB input, which mean you can play the movies straight from a shared folder on the server without the need to transfer it, and also you can connect and external hard drive through the USB port and play from it.
It also have the provisioning to view subtitles, for the DVD make sure you include the subtitles files, and for the other media file just include the .srt file for example in the same folder as the movie.
The only drawbacks and its really minimal, when you are viewing a media file let say .avi file you cannot skip (jump through the movie, some devices break the movie into small interval and allow you to skip through those) but you can fast forward up to 32x, so it’s not that bad. The other drawback that it looks ugly it looks like a trash can. For more infor here is the [link].
I anticipated this movie for so long, I finally got to see it yesterday. The reason that I have been waiting for this one is that it has one of my favorite actors “Edward Norton”. I truly believe that he is one of the most underrated actors in Hollywood. I mean the guy should have gotten something for his performances in “Primal Fear” and “American History X”.
Anyways hear is the plot the movie takes place back in the beginning of the century, in the city of Vienna. It’s about a teenage boy that’s a very talented magician, this boy falls madly in love with the city teenage princess. Due to the social difference they get separated and the boy leaves town to come back as one of the most amazing magicians the world has seen, and at this time the princess that he is madly in love with is married to the crowned prince (the most powerful man in the city).
The story moves at a slow base, and you might get bored toward the middle, but it does redeem itself toward the end, it’s very smart and surprising. The direction was very well done, and Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti did an outstanding performance. I did like the movie, and if you liked movies like Secret Windows and From Hell, you will like this movie too. To view the trailer Click here.
I just watched this clip on youtube.com, and it's actually made me hate one of my most loved characters on TV. Michael Richards (Kramer from Seinfeld) outbursts on stage very racist comments toward African American in front of a small comedy club crowd, I don’t mean comments that people might interprets as racist comment, no he was bluntly yelling the N word at some of the audience members. The video shocked me. I couldn’t believe what I was hearing; I couldn’t believe that someone would still think and say these things in our day and age. He did apologize later on thou on the David Letterman show, but the damage is done. I mean his career was already slipping away, and now he will never be able to get a gig. Racist people really disgust me, and to see a veteran comic that people loved to come out like that is really a shame.
A friend of mine referred me to this site. It’s about a multiplier game that is revolutionary. This game enables you to live another life (digitally) beside your life. You can do or be anything you want, you can become a hero with special ability, you can be a criminal, you can own a business, you can make friends, you can get married, and you can meet and date people. The limits are endless but very important aspect is that you can make money (real money). There is an exchange rate between the L$ (which used in the game) and US dollars. I tested it out yesterday, its kind of confusing in the beginning, but as soon as you get a hold of it you can do anything you want.
Its also will consume a lot of time from you if you get into it, but anything you create inside it belongs to you legally, you can publish the animation that you created and make money out of it without having to get any rights from the developers. So get on make friends, travel to different places, make money, buy land, own a business, and date and have intercourse with anybody you like. There are a total of 1,544,736 right now living in this virtual life, and its growing exponentially. [Link]
Gripping start, entertaining plot and surprising ending. The movie had all the ingredient to make it a good watch. The acting was excellent. The Action sequences were thrilling. The plot was clever. Although watching it in a Kuwaiti theatre was a bad idea hence they edited out very crucial scenes of the movie. All in all I do recommend this movie, but it’s a pure action movie don’t expect an Academy winning performance. I was disappointed with the Bond girls though, as actresses they were good, but they’re not as hot as Bond girls should be.
Daniel Craig is the darkest Bond ever. Although Daniel didn’t have the sex appeal that usually Bond actors do, but he brought toughness and ruggedness in the character. He could be the toughest Bond ever. He is scary and dark unlike the other Bonds that we’re used to. I knew he’s a good actor, but he really impressed me with his performance. That being said here is a list of the actor that were nominated for the Bond role, which one do you think would have done a better job, My pick is Clive Owen:
Yesterday I went to the Alghanim dealership is Alrai, I wanted to take a look at the new Lumina. I never was a big fan of the it and this one didn’t change my mind. I did like the exterior thou, it looked sporty and cool. The interior on the other hand still make you feel like your sitting in a cheap car, the seats are not comfortable, the Side Break looks like a toy and the dash board still looks cheap. The Lumina SS has 360 HP which is very cool but it took 6.0 L engine to get it, giving an awful compression ratio. The Lumina always had shitty handling I heard they fixed in this model but I need to drive it to believe it.
I also noticed the new Caprice there, which also had an SS model with 6.0 L engine. The Caprice interior was more luxuries, and the exterior looked pretty good. Although if you look closely you can notice that they stole the front look from Mercedes, and the back look from Chrysler 300C.
There was no prices mentioned, but I don’t think they should charge a lot for it. The only thing that I think is going to be ground breaking coming out of Chevy is the New Camaro, and I can’t wait for that.
Daniel Crag is going to be the new Bond. Daniel Crag was born on 1968 in Chester, England. Most of the Bond fanatics hated the idea that Daniel Crag is going to be the new bond. I’m not a big fan of him myself, but I have to admit he is a very talented actor. I think the biggest objection was that he’s not as much of a sex symbol as the previous Bonds were like Sean Connery and Pierce Brosnan. If you haven’t seen his movies I would recommend the “Road to Perdition”, “The Jacket”, “Layer Cake” and “Munich”. In all the mentioned movies except for “Layer Cake” he played a supporting role. So Casino Royale is the biggest step in his career. I just hope he does a good job so that the Bond series stays at the top of the action movies to watch.
After scoring 3 goals on Inter Milan and 4 goals on Anderlecht we can say that Milan got their scoring touch back. Gilardino scored his first goal in the UEFA Champions after scoring his first goal in Serie A. Kaka scored a hatrick against Anderlecht and joins Drogba on the Top scorer list with 5 goals. So things are going well for Milan, the question is if they can keep it up?
The game was very close, very physical (46 fouls and 10 yellow cards) and very exciting. Barcelona come out blazing in the beginning of the first half and managed to score a goal by Deco. After the Barcelona goal Chelsea turned the pressure on Barcelona but with no results, surprisingly Valdes was able to save very difficult shots. The Second half started with Chelsea putting the pressure again on Barcelona until it finally paid of with Lampard scoring the first goal for Chelsea. Barcelona fights back with a goal from Gudjohnsen by a beautiful pass from Ronaldinho. The game after the Barcelona 2nd goal slowed down dramatically and it looked like the game was going to finish with this result, but in the 90th minute a sloppy defense and goaltending from Barcelona resulted in Drogba scoring Chelsea second goal. Gudjohnsen was injured toward the end of the second half it will be a little scary if it is serious since Eto` will not come back before 5 months, that could mean Giuly starting (scary). Barcelona has a problem now since they find themselves in third spot behind Bremen with the threat of being eliminated from the champions.
Imagine the president of a small company. The president of that company has to be smart and sharp in order for that small business to survive and grow. Now imagine the president of a country, this person is responsible for all the people in the country, this person makes decisions of the nation of that country’s behalf, he must be very smart and intelligent and he must be aware of life aspects. Now imagine the president of the strongest country on earth ….
Over the last two UEFA Champions seasons one of the strongest rivalry's starting to emerge. Chelsea and Barcelona is considered to be the strongest two teams in the Champions league this year. Chelsea managed to eliminate Barcelona in 2004-2005 season, but Barcelona returned the favor last season. Although this game doesn't have a direct threat of elimination to both teams but Barcelona pride is in steak since Chelsea was able to defeat Barcelona in there home game 1-0, and a lose for Barcelona will make it difficult for them to qualify since they are tied with Werder Bremen in points. Since the teams are very close I expect a very entertaining game with the final score being 1-1.
